Yeah Alright

[FROSTY:Me]

Now Ill emphasize --if ya got stock tyres --get rid of em as fast as ya can.
My lil tv screen in my head saw corner and bus then car then HELLO bus again-hmm not on the plan that one -- slip sliding awaay --diddnt know I could motorcross round a corner

[Antallica]

Yeah it's a crud tyre alright, seems to have a real crap compound too. If you look at it, it's all cracked and stuff. Not smooth like my Pirelli rear.

The stockie does do well on long trips, but it's seems city riding is bad on it.. Will biff when I can, it's starting to wear out enough for me to replace.

[Antallica]

Oh yeah and if you look on the Pirelli MT75's they say 'tubeless'.... that's all crap btw.. mine has a tube.

[FROSTY:Me]

yea but do you have a rim suitable to run tubeless?--could be the guy at the tyre shop diddnt think it through

[FROSTY:Me]

Ohh now about 5 years ago Yokohama dit a lovely soft little tyre called I think a sprint-Shenko now do all their small bike tyres--If they use the same compound you mighht be suprised how sticky they are

[Antallica]

Not sure on that one man, probably is capable of it though.

I wish it had a analogue dash though, I don't like the digital anymore. I'd love to do a full fairing mod on her too with the RAM air induction. Ahh well, one day.

[FROSTY:Me]

the more i look at this little bike the more i wonder if suzie did a nekkid version.
I reckon an unfaired fxr would be perfect to commutte on--- wheres that hacksaw???

Don't go for MT75's, great commuting tyre, crap if you want to cain it....... You can't go wrong with the Bridgestone BT39SS or Dunlop TT900....... they stick like shit to a blanket.....

[Indiana_Jones]

Price tag on those?


But 1st I really need a jacket

$157.50 for a BT39SS 100/80 rear (fitted but you have to take the wheel off yourself)

and i payed about $165 at colemans for a BT39SS 90/80

But if you get both at the same time, mmmmuuuuucccccchhhhhh cheaper
